Dear brethren,
Grace and peace be multiplied unto you all from God our Father and from Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
Here is the summary of our weekend campaign in Ibadan, Oyo State and Asejire in Osun State:
The staff and students of the Southwest School of Evangelism (SWSE), Ibadan, Oyo State were divided into two groups on the weekend of July 20th to evangelize Kusela village of Akinyele L.G.A of Oyo State and Asejire town of Oshun state.
I and brother Arowolo Samuel (year 2 student of SWSE) led the group that evangelized Kusela village while brother Dele Shotola and brother Kayode Eniafe led the group that evangelized Asejire town, Oshun State on Saturday of July 20, 2013.
On Sunday at the Onikokoro / Gbongudu congregation, Ibadan, I taught the 6th lesson under our series of studies on Walking With God titled “How To Overcome Temptation” (Matt.4:1-11) while brother Arowolo Samuel admonished the church on Holiness. We are 52 in attendance with a total collection of N1,800= and in the afternoon, I taught on the Six Characteristics of a Helper at the sister's Bible class.
In the evening, brother Kayode Eniafe reported the conversion of three souls at the Asejire congregation in Oshun State as the result of the July 20 gospel campaign at that city.
